Denali - Up Close

We've been back in our son's driveway while I visited mines, prepped for a two day canoe trip with the grandson, and BJ went out to see the mountain. The son's sister-in-law has been in town as well so he took her and BJ on a flight-seeing tour of Denali.

Some of the photos will have reflections from the windows.

They headed north to Ruth Glacier at the foot of Denali and followed it towards the mountain.

Down below, on the glacier, were several planes with tourists or climbers.

The glacier had interesting textures and colors.

Meanwhile, the view of the mountain grew larger

and larger

and larger,

while BJ used the 500 mm equivalent zoom on the camera to good effect.
